Highly Recommended and Exceeding Expectations
Honors like these are earned by a select few in the industry, and only after delivering outstanding results time and again. As further evidence of their superlative service, Joel and the Blumenfeld Group have received numerous five-star reviews from highly satisfied clients. A client who recently bought and sold homes with Joel and his team said this: “We cannot speak highly enough of Joel as our real estate agent. His professionalism, knowledge, honesty, integrity and work ethics are very much appreciated and respected. Buying and finding a house at the top of the market was not an easy task. Joel was very professional as well as personal. He is a fantastic Realtor®. Anytime there was a house we wanted to see, Joel moved fast, as houses were flying off the market. Not only did
he negotiate and helped us to obtain the house of our dreams, but he also got top dollars for selling our condominium. Joel and his team are amazing, and we would highly recommend them to anyone looking to purchase a home. You will not regret it!”
A recent seller shared: “Joel made the process of selling our family home so smooth. He was highly recommended and exceeded our expectations. He has a comprehensive knowledge of all the elements necessary to prepare and market a home for sale. It was so reassuring to work with a professional who is such a good communicator, always responsive and reliable. I feel so very fortunate to have had the opportunity to work with Joel. I would ask for his help buying or selling without hesitation.”

From the start of his career, Joel proved that he has the tenacity to create rewarding real estate opportunities, even in challenging markets. After recovering from a serious injury that prompted him to change professions, Joel entered real estate at the height of the Great Recession. It was a difficult journey, and he labored diligently for 10 months before landing his first deal. “That boosted my con fidence and self esteem,” he says. “I went from selling one home my first year, to selling more than 10 my second year. Now, I’m selling more than 100 homes a year with a team of 12 agents plus a support staff.”
As the market shifts yet again, Joel and his team
are supporting clients with a current understanding of the real estate environment and end-to-end service designed to make the buying or selling experience stress-free. Joel personally manages the team’s listings, bringing his years of expertise and the force of Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices’ global presence to bear on every transaction. Special touches like a home filled with fresh flowers on photo day along with high-end photography and professional drone footage make every listing stand out from the competition. And after a successful close of escrow, clients are delighted to celebrate their purchase or sale with a custom gift basket curated especially for them.
Low inventory also means that sellers remain well-positioned. “Prices are still above the last market peak. Homes are taking a little longer to sell, but buyers still want to buy and lenders are still lending money. We’re still getting offers accepted.”
Joel’s passion for real estate reflects his appre ciation for the extraordinary community he calls home. “My passion is why I’m in the office every
day,” Joel says. “I love the city, the architecture, the beaches, the mountains and all of the great shopping and dining we have here. I love that this business allows me to take care of agents who work with me and help them succeed. And the most rewarding part is closing a deal for a client. Nothing compares with the thrill of helping people achieve their dreams.”
